I feel the same way.] Footprints: [Alicia’s got guts. She’s the only one who’d tag and call her Bitchy Nicole.] Sunny:[She’s really cool. I give her my respect.] 10 vouchers Dunno: [Haha, she’s gone totally rogue now. She’s even calling herself the villain and telling the big names behind Nicole to just blacklist her.] Mindy7: [Honestly, I’ve been sick of Nicole for ages. She’s such a phony.] CuteAsDucks: [She used her connections to snatch the role from my idol, and then her fans trashed my idol for it. Alicia just said exactly what I’ve been dying to say.] Casanova: [My fave had her opportunities stolen by Nicole too, but her fans are way too fierce. We can’t win against them, so we just keep quiet. Looks like everyone feels the same…] HairyPoppins: [This drama is so satisfying. Keep it coming!] Yellow Snowman: [I live for these epic beefs. Don’t stop pls!] Something: [You guys think the ones backing Bitchy Nicole are really gonna shut Alicia down for good?] Tinfoilhat: [Bitchy Nicole is Starlight Entertainment’s golden girl, and Nicolas is Starlight’s heir.

She didn’t just go head–to–head with Nicole, but she made enemies of all the power players behind Nicole too. 𝕨𝕎𝓌.𝕟𝓞𝘃é𝗹𝗪𝓞𝗿𝗠.𝒸o𝕞Then Nicole’s fans swooped in, starting a whole new round of roasting Alicia all over the place. They even dropped: [Just waiting for Alicia to get blacklisted and iced out.] Alicia replied: [Same here. I’m waiting.] Nicole’s fans were left speechless, They thought, ‘Seriously, what exactly are you waiting for? She’s out of her mind.” 1/5 2:12 pm ⓦ𝑤⒲.𝓃𝘰𝓿𝓮⒧𝘄óℝⓜ.𝑐𝔬𝓜Chapter 5 рр Seeing Alicia’s clapback, everyone watching the drama couldn’t help but crack up. No one realized Alicia was so hilarious before. Nicole always kept an alt account with notifications on for Alicia, so she could keep tabs on her every move. Whenever Alicia dropped a post on X, Nicole got the alert instantly. Nicole never saw it coming that a single group photo was all it took to send Alicia off the rails. 10 vouchers Back in the day, Alicia would just ignore Nicole in private, out of respect for the Hammond family. But now? She dragged Nicole out in public, no holds barred. Nicole couldn’t help but wonder if she’d pushed Alicia totally off the deep end. That last post really got under Nicole’s skin. Alicia actually had the nerve to straight–up call Nicole a bitch and even dared Nicole to blacklist her for real. Alicia obviously put Nicole on blast, making her look bad in front of everyone. Nicole would love nothing more than to blacklist Alicia and totally ruin her, but she knew she just didn’t have that kind of power. After all, ever since she joined the Hammond family, Nicole knew exactly how she’d snatched all the attention and favor that used to go to Alicia. Sure, she played the pitiful victim at first to get their sympathy, but after that, she switched gears. She always acted like the perfect, considerate girl and constantly made it seem like she couldn’t do anything without them. Sure enough, it worked. They started favoring her more and more. But that didn’t mean the family had stopped caring about Alicia altogether. So now, with Alicia roasting her on social media, Nicole was stuck. Responding would just make things worse, but ignoring it would make her look weak. After thinking it over, Nicole told her agent, “Call Haley and drop her a hint to rein Alicia in before she goes totally off the rails. “Try to convince Alicia to take down all her posts from today right away. “If she won’t do it, just log into her account and delete them.” Starlight Entertainment was legendary for its PR and marketing game. They had deals with all the top influencers and even kept a whole army of paid trolls on standby.

She paused, then added, “Once the posts are gone, get her agent to post an apology from Alicia’s account, claiming her account was hacked.” Nicole knew Alicia’s personality all too well. Alicia would never agree to delete the posts or post an apology herself. Thus, Alicia’s agent would have to handle it instead. Not only would this make Alicia get dragged even harder online, but if she ever tried to go off the rails again, no one would believe her. 2/5 Chapter 5 It would also get Nicole out of the impossible spot she was in. 10 vouchers If everyone thought Alicia’s account got hacked and it wasn’t really her posting all that drama, Nicole could just sit back and ignore the whole mess. She could even drop a post, acting all sympathetic toward Alicia, playing the gracious queen for everyone to see. Then she’d unleash her army of influencers and trolls to stir things up. They’d start whispering that it wasn’t a hack at all. Alicia probably just totally went crazy after seeing that photo Nicole posted. 𝘄𝘸𝗪.ñ𝓞𝗩ε𝗟𝓌𝘰ℝ𝕞.co𝓂People would say Alicia was just jealous of how blessed Nicole was, so Alicia totally snapped. But once she cooled off, she freaked out about crossing Nicole and her powerful backers, so she pretended her account got hacked and deleted her posts. That way, Alicia would get roasted all over the internet, lose fans for chickening out and not owning her words, and her reputation would tank completely. If the Hammonds caught wind of this, they’d just think Alicia was being super petty. After all, it was not like Alicia didn’t have group photos with them. Posting on social media, then deleting and apologizing? That would just make the Hammond and Delaney families look bad. Thinking about it, Nicole thought that Alicia going off and posting all that drama on X wasn’t even a bad thing. Nicole’s agent instantly got what she meant. Nicole was totally throwing Alicia under the bus. Her agent gave a sly, knowing grin and replied, “Alright.” ***** Meanwhile, Alicia’s agent, Haley Waters, looked absolutely grim. She never expected Alícia to cause such a huge mess behind her back. ‘Does she even take me seriously?‘ Haley thought to herself. As soon as Alexandra’s agent called her, Haley tried calling Alicia right away, But every single time, the line was busy. 𝚠𝗪𝔀.𝓝ôv𝚎𝘭𝓌𝕆𝓇𝑚.čⓞ𝘮After hanging up with Nicole’s agent, Haley was practically ready to explode, ‘Since Alicia doesn’t respect me, don’t blame me for playing hardball, Haley thought, She had the X account logins and passwords for all five members of LUMIA, so she just logged straight into Alicia’s account. Her plan was exactly what Nicole’s agent had hinted at. She was going to delete all of Alicia’s posts from today, then post an apology claiming her account had been hacked. Of course, hardly anyone would actually buy that excuse. 3/5 2:12 pm pp Chapter 5 But at least it would let Nicole and Alexandra off the hook, pulling them out of the drama. Plus, Nicole would end up owing her a favor. 10 vouchers And if Alicia got dragged even harder and roasted by the whole internet, that just played right into Haley’s game plan for LUMIA. She was basically making Alicia take the heat to prop up the other four girls. One superstar could never make as much money or rack up the numbers as four superstars. However, every time Haley tried to log in, it just kept telling her the password was wrong. Then she realized that Alicia must’ve already changed her password. That was absolutely unacceptable to Haley. She kept trying to call Alicia, but the call still couldn’t get through. After a moment, she grabbed someone else’s phone and dialed Alicia again. This time, the call actually went through. Clearly, Alicia had blocked her number. Haley’s expression soured even more.
